WHAT IS MINOXIDIL?

Minoxidil is a vasodilator (the process in which the blood vessels expand), originally used to treat high blood pressure in an oral drug known as Loniten. During the use of this drug, it was later discovered to have significant "hair regrowth" capabilities. In 1988, Pharmacia & Upjohn Co. first introduced the FDA-approved formula under the brand name "Rogaine" which was proven to STOP HAIR LOSS in its tracks, and actually help REGROW HAIR BACK THAT WAS ALREADY LOST!!! Since 1996 (patent expired Feb 13, 1996), these products and strengths can now be sold over-the-counter as non-prescription drugs. The minoxidil up for sale is a clear solution, not a foam, gel, or irritating lotion. Both the 2%(Men and Women) and 5%(Men Only) have now been approved by the FDA for over the counter distribution. Although the mechanism of action to this day is still unknown, Minoxidil still exceeds as the number one treatment for hair loss in the United States!!!



WHO CAN USE MINOXIDIL?

Minoxidil has been proven to be effective to stop hair loss and regrow hair for both men and women of all colors and types. Typically the 5% and above is for men only, and the 2% strength is for both men and women. If you are just starting to thin on the top of the scalp, it is recommended that you start with the 2% first, and see how this strength works, before moving on to a stronger concentration. Women should not use any strength higher then the 2%.



DO NOT USE MINOXIDIL IF YOU:
*

Are currently Pregnant or lactating
*

Under the age of 18
*

Currently use other medications on the scalp
*

Have infected, irritated, painful or sunburned scalp
*

If you have any doubts about using this product, talk to your physician first

Hi all I am new here too. Have been experiencing quite alot of hair problems myself, hair started to thin like crazy around the front. AND to think i m only 25 am really at a loss right now. Don't know what to do. am thinking of going over to singapore for help. any suggestions where i can go?

Minoxidil will not work..many have try them...
even u want to use minoxidil, u must use with Propecia.
Iona,
I suggest u to read my hairloss blog at below. Propecia might b the better solution although it will also come with sides effect.

Guys who use Propecia, please come to my hair loss blog to vote. I am doing a Propecia survey.Thanks

Hello chgchksg128, thanks so much for the advice! I have actually tried Propecia before, but it did not really work for me. As in, there was certainly no increase in my hair growth, so i was scared about just swallowing pill after pill and stopped taking it altogether (i have already voted btw! good blog!). I am thinking of taking serious steps like getting hairpiece or something. You guys got any suggestions where I can go?

aiyer no need to wear wig yet mer.. u can actually go to Singapore to do hair transplant and its pretty common there n other europe countries but tell u first it aint cheap at all O.o.. u can get about 3000 hair follicles transplant for about 20-35KRM. 100% guarantee works! but bare in mind that u need to take propecia(for the rest of ur life) as well to maintain the new hairs... very mahal indeed but result is satisfactory

Hey hikochi, i know i feel very yucks about getting a wig too, but i heard they have some new technology in some spore haircare centres which can make the wig look so undetectable to the eye and to touch. also ah, i heard some horror story about hair transplant, i m damn scared to go for surgery unless i m like super desperate, haha m short of cash too la. thought i try a wig first and see whether it is okay. my fren in singapore got one from some place and he says its pretty good, i just go for consultation first la,refuse to sign contract or anything yet, will keep you updated on whats going on! thanks!

Iona
how long did you take Propecia.
Hair regrowth take time...u need at least 6 mths to see some result..and may b one yr to see more obvious result.
But while u taking Propecia, did ur hair falls reduce?

Hey! Actually i took it for lets see...around 1 and half years, my hairfall reduced slightly, but not much difference. It is just becoming more and more obvious that my hairline is receding and I am getting a bald patch. This is really really horrible, cant even show my face out in public. Thats why i want to take more drastic steps, whether it is hair transplant operation or hairpiece. I went down to Singapore last weekend actually, woah the traffic jam at the causeway is crazy man, anyways i went to several haircare centres to figure out what I can do and I have shortlisted down to a few. Will research a bit more and find out whether have bad rep or something. Will keep yall updated!

Iona
are you sure the hairloss you now suffer is Male pattern hairloss
frontal and crown fair is thinner, may see ur scalp
since u said u have bald patch...if it is not on the crown, may b ,just may b not MPB so so propecia not effect at all

I am pretty sure I am having MPB, at least thats what the tricho said so he recommended i try propecia. anyway i m trying to decide which hair care centre to go to now. will keep yall updated!

Hi...

just wondring...any doc i can see to get a presciption in KL? btw.. propecia will nto work on the M forehead....mostly on the crown....that is where the DHT are centered around...

hair loss most of the time is due to insuffiecient oxygen circulation to the root of your hair. it also because of the not enuf nutrien deliver to your hair.

i woould personally recomend your to go to see a Dr on the issue. they would most probably eithier use Mesotherapy ( but it's ban in singapore ), microneedling therapy and lights to treat your. result is assure and it's much cheaper than going to those hair centre.

Hi all, over the last weekend, went down to Singapore hair centre called iaremyhair. so far, i am pretty impressed. they werent pushy, they explained everything i needed to know about wigs and how they have good technology so that hairpiece looks undetectable. i signed a contract with them which will last 12 months, and they are providing a min no of maintainence sessions as well as minimum number of wigs. i am quite happy withy my choice. m going down next weekend again to start fitting for my first piece. yay i m quite excited!!!

perhaps u can check out minoxidil in lelong.com.my, around rm200 for 3 months supply.. pharmacy selling 1 month for rm150

so cheap?i think no free lunch in this world loh...maybe the quality is not good ...or they use the bottle of famous brand but low quality liquid to lie customer...need to check and consider properly

i will prefer to get regaine or head way..they are tad more expensive but they are at least original. Kirkland sells for around RM 150 on the market and if it goes for 200 for 3 months i am afraid it might not be real...

actually minoxidil only around USD15 (RM60) for one month supply in western country.... Just google around, but might face problem from custom if order from oversea... gonna depend on luck.

Wrong!!! ---- 4th is:

Make the best of what is YOU. Restyle (but no combovers pleeze), mamak electric no 1 or 0, shave skinhead, wear cap, etc.

Unattached? You need to know that potential partners (esp gals, a few told me) sometimes LIKE thin hair.

All the rest is false ego, grasping for the unreal and unattainable. Enjoy being yourself in your own present life!

THIS PRODUCT DOES NOT WORK - FINAL..if you can grow your hair back in 7 days then it's not a hair loss product but a miracle product. Please do not promote products like this here. Don't capitalize on people's desperation to cure hair loss. There is no evidence whatsoever on how this product can regain back your hair. You are also overpricing this product, the costs is less than RM10 per bottle..

Totally agree that it will not work for MPB...at most it just help for healthier scalp...
regrow your hair is VERY VERY HARD....it really take times and nothing can gurantee...even by rogaine and propecia
